Not really sure but.....

Do you "tune it" by turning the small screw through a hole that is masked by a sticker? I mean keep turning it by an 1/8th or so and press the fob until your alarm activates / deactivates.  :undecided:

Good luck.  Thats how mine works and it is a vw/quantum alarm.  I just cant be sure all vw alarms and fobs work the same.  On more secure set-ups the fob and alarm are matched :smiley:

Have you guys got a toggle switch inside the car to turn the alarm on and off as well?

No, why have you? Don't know why you would have one really as anyone would be able to turn the alarm off wouldn't they if they got into your car?
